Have you crossed your holiday shopping list and checked it twice? Are there some people still left to shop for?
There are some family members and friends on your list who are difficult to shop for. I’m finding that the older kids get, the harder it is to buy them gifts. My boys, for example, don’t play with a lot of toys anymore and it’s becoming increasingly challenging to buy them things that they will enjoy.
Often it’s easier to buy gift cards so your loved ones can shop whatever they want on their own. CardSwap makes it effortless with their unique gift card service.
There are two things you can do with CardSwap – buy gift cards and also sell them… so if you don’t like the gift card you receive, you can sell them for cash! No more unused gift cards sitting around at home.
When you buy Gift Cards you’ll also earn rewards and once you have accumulated enough SwapPoints, you can redeem rewards for gift cards and cash back.
There are so many retailers to choose from so gift card shopping is made easy. Some merchants include Hudson’s Bay, Old Navy, EQ3, Pizza Pizza, Roots, Petro Canada, Aldo, Golf Town, Pottery Barn, Fairmont Hotels, Moxie’s, Jack Astor’s, West 49, Canadian Tire, Shoppers Drug Mart, Winners/Homesense and many more.
Here’s how it works:
Buy Gift Cards
Buy the gift card and get free shipping and you can pay securely through INTERAC, PayPal or credit card. Your gift card will arrive in the mail, usually within a week. You’ll also SwapPoints on each transaction, redeemable for gift cards or cash back savings.
Sell Gift Cards
If you have a gift card you don’t want, go to the website and enter the details of your gift card to receive an instant cash offer. Then, you mail in your gift cards with their FREE prepaid shipping label. Receive an email confirmation upon receipt of your gift card. CardSwap will mail you a cheque or credit your account SwapPoints within two business days of receiving and validating your gift cards. SwapPoints can be redeemed for gift cards or cash back via PayPal.
Earn Rewards
SwapPoints are a part of a reward system created by CardSwap to allow you to earn, collect, then redeem SwapPoints for gift cards to your favourite merchants or cash back via PayPal. Once you’ve earned a minimum of 1,000 points simply click on the “Redeem” tab and choose your reward.

I love that you can sell gift cards you don’t want. I know I have some sitting here that I have received that I don’t want. I have to try this out!
I would buy Shoppers! We go there a ton since they have cheaper milk and other products. Combine that with Optimum points and the personalize coupons and I could make a gift card go a little further 🙂
